body residents of the chthonic state*:
it's roundabout time to get things in order for a summer tour.
if you have written before about having a show in America (for now)
or would like to put one on, please drop a line:
booking@highplainssigh.com
surely some conventional bookings will come into play too. but we're
most curious about the good people and things waiting behind your door
when you open it. be it a house concert, art space, party in the
woods or meadow or what have you.
Amy Annelle will be playing all new songs, songs that are nearly done
being commited to the recorded format [------>now perhaps you are
thinking about being commited elsewhere, like the octagonal Insane
Asylum on Roosevelt Island in 1839]
Ralph White too will be playing songs from his forthcoming solo
album.

And they will probably do a few shows as the duo Precious Blood,
which is another thing altogether: "Precious Blood is steeped in folk
music's strange past"~~Adam Schragin, Austinist

*chthonic...typically refers to the interior of the soil, rather than
the living surface of the land, or the land as territory. It evokes at
once abundance and the grave.
The term 'chthonic' can be used to describe the spirit of nature
within, the unconscious earthly impulses of the Self, one's material
depths, but not necessarily with negative connotations. In the
positive sense, it appears as a 'spirit of nature', creatively
animating Man, things, and the world.
(from the Greek khthonios, of the earth, from the earth; pertaining
to the Earth)
